The corporation announced on the 21st that it held the "Incheon Cybersecurity Council for the First Half of 2026" in the Songdo area of Incheon on the 20th.

This council was hosted by the local branch of the National Intelligence Service and organized by Incheon International Airport Corporation. Approximately 30 cybersecurity officers from 13 major public institutions in the Incheon area, including Incheon Port Authority, Korea Environment Corporation, and Sudokwon Landfill Site Management Corporation, attended the event.

Recently, there has been a sharp increase in cases of cyber intrusions directly targeting national agencies, and as artificial intelligence (AI) technology advances, cyberattacks are also evolving into more sophisticated forms. As a result, the importance of protecting personal information and systems at public institutions is growing day by day.

This council was held under the slogan "AI Cybersecurity Hub, Together with Incheon." Participants shared and discussed strategies for advancing cybersecurity, including measures for the safe use of generative AI, the current status of cybersecurity response, and the implementation of AI-based security monitoring systems. They also engaged in in-depth discussions on strengthening their cooperative framework.

Jo Wooho, Head of the Aviation Security Division at Incheon International Airport Corporation, stated, "This council served as an opportunity to solidify the cooperative framework among public institutions in the Incheon area as an AI cybersecurity hub in preparation for the surging cyber threats." He added, "Going forward, the corporation will continue to create a public service environment where citizens can feel safe, based on close collaboration with the National Intelligence Service and related organizations."
